Did you do this yourself DBU?

I picked out the woods and body shape. I designed the headstock shape myself. Warmoth did the wood work and finishes. I assembled. :thumbsup:
 
very nice! I also like that floyd uprgrade's big block in there :)

It looks pretty nice. How much work did you have to do in setting it up? Do you have to do any touch up fret work or does it all pretty much work?

This is my 3rd complete Warmoth build. All I've ever had done on any of them was a good set-up by my guitar tech. A little nut filing here, a little truss rod adjustment there, etc. Never had to dress or file the frets on any of them. All 3 have SS6100 fret wire on them.

Basically bolt the neck on, install your hardware, string it up and set it up. That's is all I did. Some of my favorite guitars that I own.

The nice part about going with Warmoth is you pick and choose your options. Get the dream guitar you've always wanted. :thumbsup:
 
Not really my style but it does indeed look great man :thumbsup:

Congrats on the new Warmoth build!
 
That is killer!! Don't you love that wolfgang back contour? I've got one on my "frankie" and the neck feels very close to the EBMM guitars i've owned in the past..Great stuff :rock:
 
That is beautiful. Ironically, I pulled out one of my Warmoths today. It is my only total Warmoth build, meaning that it was ordered (not by me) from Warmoth, speced and finished by them. The guy then did as you did and I think lost his job. His loss was my gain as they say. Mine is not anywhere near as fancy as yours, and is not as I would have speced it, but I was thinking today that every time I pick it up I think how amazing it sounds and plays. I have never had it setup, and rarely tweak it myself. It is very stable. It has the SS frets too, on a 24 fret maple neck with ebony board, and has EMG KK package (which I would have never picked.) Yet somehow it sounds insanely good. I was playing some Warren Haynes on it today to give you an idea what kind of tones I like. Congrats on your guitar, it is truly beautiful.

I have their Wolfgang profile on two of them and the '59 Round Back profile on the other one. I go back and forth on which one I like better. :thumbsup:
 
Dude, you have your own custom headstock?
I dont know if I can talk to you anymore :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL:
Very cool :rock:
